A word from the owner

This remarkable castle, built on the instruction of William the Conqueror, has been my family’s home for 450 years. The Castle is now home to my wife, Elizabeth and our children, all of whom enjoy the Castle as I did as a child. We hope you enjoy your visit.

The Castle stands on the edge of an escarpment giving dramatic views over the Welland Valley and five counties.

Surrounding the Castle there are some 18 acres of gardens largely following the foot print of the medieval castle. The vast 400 year old “Elephant Hedge” bisects the formal 17th century terraced gardens.

When we first visited Rockingham Castle we immediately fell in love with the beautiful grounds and rich history. To be able to make our own piece of history in such an iconic part of our country's heritage has left us feeling blessed. All the staff's support in the build up and during the day was nothing short of excellent.

For centuries Rockingham Castle has entertained royalty and private guests within its ancient walls. The history and tradition continue today.

The beautiful and peaceful grounds of the Castle provide an ideal backdrop for an out of office meeting, seminar or conference in a spectacular setting.

Let us help you plan your day

I have just launched a new product range using Rockingham Castle as the venue. The choice was perfect offering my team the opportunity to experience a totally different meeting venue. The team was extremely helpful and made organising the event totally seamless including adding an afternoon of fun via the Land Rover Experience.

School Visits

A school trip to Rockingham Castle provides a unique experience that could not be replicated in a school environment.

Our Castle tour usually covers all aspects of the Castle’s history as appropriate to the ages of the group. However, we tailor our tours to your needs therefore special emphasis on a particular period can be arranged.
